Trip

Y'know, I've had about as much of the new management as I can stomach. I still have a bit of a Twitter addiction but it's coming off my phone today.

@BahuWrites For what it's worth, I'm finding that Mastodon is a much better environment for me to actually engage with other people.

@TheoWerewolf Oh yeah, noises from that region are a little unsettling. I had that a couple days ago. What's actually making that sound??

Yow, I just stretched and every joint in my upper body including the ones in my ribs just popped... it felt like my entire body was made of bubble wrap! But the really loud pops from my sternum were disconcerting...

@thallanor Good luck! Losing weight is unreasonably difficult but I hope you can make it work for you. I'm trying to do the same, although only 30 pounds or so. What software are you using?

It sounds like a lot of weight lost in one week, and it is, but in my past experience, that initial shock to the body sees such a response. It's what I'll be seeing a month from now, a year from now, that'll really give an idea of where I'll end up. I have over 100 lbs to lose.

I have been struggling with my weight for so many years that I can hardly remember what it's like to be a healthy weight. I'm having all sorts of other health issues because of it. I used to top out at 250 lbs. Now, 275 lbs.

@alexcheetah Imagine telling someone today that Cadillac is getting into F1. Are you saying that Cadillac is getting into F1???

Imagine telling someone 30 years ago that Cadillac would be getting into F1.

@Celanor Oh no, I've been calling you kitty for ages

@WestJet Flight WS3181 to Kelowna just got cancelled. Can you please advise what happens next? Will it be rebooked?

@Vanvidum I'm not convinced that that isn't a real giant cat working the cash register.

@FlipBunny I live about 22 km away from where I was born. The thing about growing up near a relatively big city is that I was able to go to university here and get a good job here, so there was never much incentive to go further afield.

WOAH this is wild to me. I know almost no one who still lives this close to home: census.gov/library/storie…

@conreeaght I'm pretty sure every engineering faculty in the country commemorates it. The University of Alberta engineering department has a plaque dedicated to the 14 Not Forgotten and would set up a memorial by it for the week of Dec 6 every year. It's important.

Today, we remember the lives of the 14 young women who were killed in the 1989 gender-based attack at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal. We will not forget. ⁣#RememberThe14 #December6 bit.ly/3F64cHY

@sovykurosei What are they dealing??

Southgate Mall has an actual convention-style dealer's den infront of the London Drugs.

@tamas221 *hugs* Sorry you have to keep dealing with that :(

@TheoWerewolf Laying out the cones at the very end was what got me!

Picking up the manhole cover and putting it back on the pipe was where I lost it. :)

I do something nice for my car and it rewards me by having a coolant leak, naturally. I need the car market to stop being so stupid.

@spiritferret Overall I'm pretty happy with the results for what it is. I haven't used it on my face though. Depending on how much area you want to cover, there's Tria which makes an actual laser device that can deliver a lot more energy but it has a very small head so it will be slow.

@spiritferret I've been using a Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 IPL device for a few months and it's been surprisingly effective on some areas, not so much on others. No permanent effects anywhere, but the hair grows back a lot slower and finer so shaving actually lasts more than a day.

Been looking at face/body laser hair removers. Anybody have good suggestions? I'm so tired of shaving and then having noticable stubble a few hours later. The dysphoria in the afternoon/evening has been miserable.

@cybafterdark Well, hopefully they're the kind you eat. I can handle that. But if it's the other kind I think I'm okay - it's not like they'll have anywhere to live on me. :P

@cybafterdark Pizza 🙂 Wealth 😀 Crabs 😨

I just fall apart if I don't have any structure to my day. I hate it so much.
